Very innovative way to advertise. Don't know are you original but thats just great!
I went mushroom picking in Finland once, but I didn't sieni.
Love this so much 🤣
Me too but a bird made me trip and fall because i only see lokki
We love our sienis so much that going mushroom picking has its own verb sienestää as in let's go sienestään

Robert Gustafsson's acting as a drunk Finn is a classic and he does it perfectly.
3:18 the first tool is called tuura which Is used to test the thickness of the ice or to just break It, and the next one Is a jääsaha which translates to ice saw
2:45 but for real the fact that his Finnish was a bit clumsy at first but the second he starts screaming swear words, it's spot on
Sounded like perfectly good and drunk to me.
Testament to his greatness right there, 'cause he didn't really speak any Finnish at all. The only actual words other than the swearing were 'voi' and 'kaskelotti'. 'Sumalainen' was probably an attempt at Suomalainen though.
He did great on "Perkele", one of the hardest words to get right
@@pekkajarvinen69 It is sad because one time the Finnish comedian Ismo did a U.S. tour and after the show he did a brief meet and greet with fans to which I went up to him and said "The only Finnish word I know is Perkele" to which he smiled and said "Oh yes that's a great word"
Oh, at 9:02, those are yellowfoot (Craterellus tubaeformis, "suppilovahvero"), also known as winter mushrooms. They are known to grow in huge numbers. They are very resistant to freezing temperatures. A couple of years ago my friend picked those in early January (there was no snow until later)! Those are delicious, I'd even say better than the valued golden chanterelles (Cantharellus cibarius, "kantarelli"). Suppilovahveros can be frozen fresh or dried and then added to heck, almost anything: soups, bolognese sauce, redhydrated for pizza topping, etc. etc.
the joke was that under covid regulations you'd have to stand closer to other people than normally. lol
my grandmother said that in the old days, around the 40s and 50s, the clothes were washed in the winter first in the sauna with warm water and then rinsed exactly as you saw in that video, i.e. in icy lake water and this happened in Finland
This is exactly what my mother had to do. People may think that what you see in this video is a joke, but it is not!
@@toinenprofessori771
all white laundry that was usually woven from home-grown flax or store-bought cotton fabric was boiled in hot water, birch ash lye was used as a detergent, which was usually made at home because many could not afford to buy ready-made in the store of course soap made from tallow was used for all other clothing
@@JainMonroe I'm an immigrant to Finland fascinated by Finnish history and rustic old style living. I'd love to know more about this. I learned recently about the dugouts filled with ice cut from lakes in winter used for water and refrigeration in summer. amazing ingenuity
@@IK-wc4od everything is based on the fact that warm water opens the fabric fibers and cold water closes them, and often after a cold rinse, the garment was ironed with a hot iron, which pressed the fibers tightly and thus the garment became more dirt-repellent
@@IK-wc4od
and e.g. woolen clothes or woolen household goods were not washed continuously only if it was very dirty, therefore under all woolen clothes a shirt made of either cotton or linen fabric was kept. which protected the outer garment from sweat and body secretions and woolen clothes or products were washed in the snow, i.e. they were taken outside in the winter to cool off and thus a cold woolen product was washed with snow, i.e. it was spun in the snow. if the woolen product was warm, it absorbed moisture from the snow and thus became wet.
The reason the drunk Finn skit didn’t get downvotes is because it’s relatable and true
Today on Yle some random guy was interviewed about art on trams. His answer "i dont want any of that art shit on trams". He was wearing shorts and a t -shirt while it was snowing. I got veri Finnish vibes.
There's stupid amount of mushrooms in Finnish forests, like in Nuuksio for example.. You can find those mushrooms in like 1 to 2 hours if you're lucky
Muovipullo what are you doing here?
Not all of them you cannot
Have you been into a real forest picking mushrooms or just read IL or IS. Yes there are good years when everyone can find em and there's bad years when only the ones with experience of the area knows, places change according to rainfall and heat and the greed of the forest plot owner(like a money producing forest dries up and can make a huge area not even worth going into). Nuuksio is a protected area for the city people to visit what they see as a real forest but the reality around Finland is that maybe 30 years ago you could find stupid amounts everywhere but today you can walk 20km without finding more than a few because of the ditches and clearing of trees so that the wind dries the forest. I did pick one year 60+l of blackhorn mushrooms in an area that I would never imagine could have em but visited the same place 3 years later and found only 0.5l(I know how to spot if someone else has been there before me and that was not the case, it was the golf course that they made bigger that dried up the area). To get 2-3 buckets of blueberries is a pain when as a child even I managed to pick half a bucket in the time my parents got 3 of em filled.
Funnel wafer mushrooms do grow in huge fields usually when you find em so if the forest is healthy like Nuuksio even I stumbled on em there when just visiting the place but the terrain is nasty to pick em in but for the rest of Finland it probably gets worse and worse to find those fields if you do not live next to a protected area.
Point, the amount is not stupid in Finnish forests. Its stupid in untouched/protected ones and those are few in today's greedy world. Its not only greed, also the sick +30 degree periods do damage to the forests. What do I know, I have only been picking em for 35years in 5 different towns/cities but I do know that most fins will never see a real forest(I was lucky enough to visit one 15 years ago but it is gone now, it was old and you felt its "greatness" when you entered it but its gone now and it was only a 300mx300m area back then).
@@amadeuz8161 I'm a lucky one, I live in spain, next to a tiny (50mx50m) forest, and found fox boletus (haavanpunikkitatti jos oikein tunnistin, mut punikkitatti se on) there, lot's or them. Not enough to sell but enough to eat them every day. And it is literally next to me, I take 5 steps from my front door and I'm inside the forest. I hope I can harvest them for until the spring.
Yoooo, Muovipullo
5:00 The cold never bothered me anyway
Hi! Dave, here's a video idea. You should sometime read the fingerpori comic strips and see if you can understand the puns. Litlebit like your finnish idioms videos, like they could be translated to englis by Cat or something? Just an idea, fingerpori is the best!
This is a great ideat! Should be frustratingly difficult for Dave and superbly entertaining for us
Absolutely YES for this!
robert's finnish sounds like if you trained an ai on drunk finnish people
It's funny, I've only ever been to Kouvola once, to pick up my cat, and it was one of the most dreary and depressing places I've ever visited and I was only there for like 30 minutes.
Almost the same story that i have but ..not just quite.
I didn't go to Kouvola, i went to Kuopio.
I didn't pick up a cat, i picked up a rescue doggo.
And it was kinda interesting, not really dreary and depressing.
But I was there for around 30 minutes and ive only been there once!
But the whole 400 + 400 km car ride was something I never wanna experience again.
It was spent in the backseat of a super drafty and leaky Honda Civic, during the first snowfall which was a blizzard driven with summer tyres and as the car's heater for the air conditioning decided to break down, the dog realized it's going far from home and a heartbreaking piercing sorrowful solo chorus theme song for the whole experience began. That lasted for 3 hours..
But the old grandma doggo is fine now :) giving her scratches from everyone.
@@Litepaw Nice, at least about the doggo. Coincidentally I also went for a very brief visit to Kuopio to pick up a car with a friend, but our ride was significantly more pleasant. We got to see the beauty that is Päijänne in perfect winter weather and we stopped by this pretty cool place called Bus Burger in Lahti to eat as well.
@@notyourdadI know that place!
And ah yes.. Lahti. I was on a festival trip last summer and had a quick stop to eat there on the way back home.
Also had a quick stop in Mikkeli for the first time in my whole life.
Oh and I'd love to see Saimaa during winter.. that's a bucket list thing
There has been a lot of war posts because the Winter War started 30th November (1939) and the independence day is also close by. Those are some of the dates in the Finnish calendar when military history posting intensifies. 😅
"lampaankääpä" is my favourite mushroom for picking because they are very big so you get your basket full very fast and with very little effort.
nice meaty texture and umami flavor
3:15 Just like to note that she's not a Finn that's on the ice breaking video. She's named Jonna Jinton ja lives in the northern Sweden. She makes awesome calming videos here on UA-cam using her videoing style and nature.
Also Jonna does have some roots from Finland so there is a bit finn in her heritage.
@@tapio7133 I didn't know that. Nice 👌
Finnish dont have problem with cold. Cold has problem with Finnish
they are not chanterelles, they are funnel wafers. Chanterelle is a yellow and very different-looking mushroom.
I watched that whole sponsor spiel
I didn't expect a Swedish comedian (how are they even a thing?) to nail that impression, but I live in Finland and have seen that and know it's true.
Second viceo is Jonna Jinton, a swedish artist living near Luleå. It was a parody bc lots of her fans think they love in the sticks... she's worth a follow on UA-cam and Instagram. Makes wonderfull art and jewels.
And you're right, the lake is artificial.
You should make video of that top gear Finland episode. British and Finnish stuff is interesting to see your reaction. Mika Hakkinen Teaches Captain Slow to Drive | Top Gear
When you come to Kouvola, only show Kaunisnurmi in your video to confuse people, cause that is the pretty part of kouvola.
There is that random chinese gate too on tiilitie.
That guy in the beginning who was about to steal information from people, what a jerk.
I enjoy more of the freezing temperatures than hot. I can't understand how people like hot weather. Atleast when it's cold you can put clothes on if you're cold 😅
Exactly. In the cold you can put on a warm sweater, wrap yourself in a blanket, drink something hot... Can't do much in the heat if you're already naked in front of a fan and still melting. And I have naturally low blood pressure so any heat has me super dizzy and weak so I'm always a total zombie in the summer.
If you visit Kouvola make sure you visit other areas than just the center
That sponsor ad was smooth 😄👍
True. Everybody thinks now there are no washing machines in Nordic countries.
Back in the day they did wash it in the lake during winter and yes stuff do dry even when frozen.
Your reddit commenting videos are so good :D
The cold never bothered me anyway 💁🏻♀️🤭
At 6:56 those are all movie characters. I don't recognize the first two but in the second row first is Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem) from "No Country for Old Men" (2007), and the second is Alex (Malcom McDowell) from "A Clockwork Orange" (1971) directed by the great Stanley Kubrick.
The second one is Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz) from "Inglourious Basterds" (2009).
You do realize the average Russian thinks Finns started the winter war and Russia won right?
Of course. They are brainwashed to think Finland started the war which is not true. Actually nobody won the war. Finland lost it and Soviet-Russia lost it as well. There are only losers in wars.
i’m so glad i subscribed ☺️
8:19 I actually found your channel via that exact same post😁
Dave Cad is a bit like AbroadInJapan, but in Finnish and 90% of his audience is Finnish.
If you like to have a challenge with finding what you're picking, may I suggest cloudberries (hilla or lakka)?
So amusing video again!😁👌
I've never seen that lake and I have lived in Finland almost my whole life!
I would really like to see you interviewing Neil Hardwick. Please try it?
Great video
The ice laundry video is of a Norwegian artist names Jonna Jinton who lives in Norway. She’s awesome
Edit: which you clarified 😂
She is swedish and lives in sweden
i live in vantaa witch is really close to you and i think we might have a bit more snow than you
That "drunk Finnish man" sounded more like estonian to me :)
Washing clothes on ice, ok.
Drying clothes outside in winter, not ok.
I wonder… Have you ever visited Lahti or even thinked about visiting it? Also i love your videos!
Kouvola has nothing to offer but junkies was not worth the subway ride that is from helsinki about 30 min
So what do you mean you only watch Frozen because you have a kid? It's a good movie for ALL AGES 😤😤😤
Where are you located? Anywhere near Hattula?
Dave you should react to r/fingols. Very "finnish" things reaching from yellow skins to saunas, all with a sprinkle of self awareness and irony. It's a whole new Finnish stereotype joke you probably haven't even heard of
The milk thing is probably a joke regarding finland being the biggest consumer of milk per capita in the world
1:50 that’s just how the nordic countries work
The laundry video is in Sweden
Go to kouvola its a nice place

Finnish small talk (..or as we like to tittle it the smallest talk): " Yes, yes, yes...none of your business. Now leave me alone allready". But to be honest we actually need people around us, but we also need those people to keep at least 5 m distance and stay quiet and mind their own business for f**k sakes (...unless someone is dying or something and even then you don't really need to whine about it just try to get along by yourself). I remember when one of my friend wrote something on his Facebook page and it was about like this Person1: "Okay.. I'm about to make my first coffee today to get my day launched". Person2 answered: "Please... Die allready" (...because you don't need to know every single detail).
Robert Gustavsson is funny :D
I really like to watch your videos!!! Terveisiä Kouvolasta :D please don't come here, you'll be traumatized 😂😂 but if you're coming i would recommend visiting the shopping center " Veturi". And there's also a really good Chinese restaurant in the center of Kouvola called "Mei Lok", in Hansakeskus.
And don't forget to buy some Kouvolan lakritsi 😂
Kouvolan lakritsi is the worlds best licorice.
Its said that Kouvola is the licoricecapital of the whole world.
Veturi is another misleading finnish word since käteen = "in the hand", veturi = "locomotive", but käteen veturi = (something completely different).
huge props for pronouncin swedish name in finnish!!!
Mrs Cad is a Swedish speaking Finn so Finnish is poor Dave's 3rd language
@@mostlyminx that explains the perfect pronounce really, used the hangout with swedishfinn when i was kid, didnt learn much tho
Somehow the picture of soldiers crossing the railway do not look like finns
Plese don't let them make you a...gasp...REDDITOR!!
Girl in snow and ice is Jonna Jinton and resides in Sweden. I think I am correct on this.
Oh it was in the video.
True. Ppl in other countries must think there are no washing machines in Nordic countries.
Next react to ismon ase supermarketti osat 1&2
Any chance these sponsored segments are influenced by a certain other Dave from England?
And milk is not evil, it was a gag at the 4chan forum and the media took the bait.

That Mika Häkkinen clip was from this Top Gear video which I would recommend reacting to if you haven't already seen it: ua-cam.com/video/7q0s4aEWeaY/v-deo.html
I'm 🇫🇮 in irl
There is no town like pori in finland. Maybe you should go see that.
Yes.
You may think that showing a woman washing laundry in a hole made in ice is super exaggeration. This is not so. Still about 65-70 years ago this was really done in northern Finland at least. Not really washing but flushing after washing in sauna where one could heat water in a pot. After washing the wet laundry was put in a tub and dragged in a sled to a lake or to a river where flushing was done in hole in the ice.
at second video that lady is actually swedish
I've lived in Kouvola my whole life and I can say only a tiny part of it is ugly and yes it's the very center of the city. :D when you get out of there you'll see much prettier places.
Dave do you have any other channels where you post videos of not Finland related topics?
i washed my clothes in ¨avanto¨ its actually pretty fun
Robert Gustafsson is secretly a Finn?
My birthday is tomorrow 😃
Kiva että viihdyt täällä
9:02 I think the closest one is "Ketä kuuseen kurkottaa, se katajaan kapsahtaa." Who reaches for the spruce will fall onto the juniper. I think both mean similar things.
Bloody hell, it is "kuka", not "ketä". Some people do not know their own language. I cannot tell, how much I hate this.
@@toinenprofessori771 Both of you are wrong. It's "joka" kuuseen kurkottaa, or "ken" more rarely. The earliest known version of the expression had neither.
@@Yoarashi I did not mean to refer to the phrase itself but to the fact that many people say "ketä" when one should say "kuka". You are right, the phrase should be "Joka kuuseen..."
go to kouvola!

das not chanterelle. Looks like suppilovahvero, or suppiksia
